<p>id say you got a good chance. i was just accepted to USD like 2-3weeks ago and here is me:
GPA weighted: flat 4, never really figured out my unweighted...
SAT: 1210 (M+CR), and 1830 (writing included)
Rank: top 20%</p>
<p>And i basically took as many difficult courses as you did. aaaand you are way more active in EC stuf than i was.
Stuff I did:
Cross-Country (4 Years)
Hospital Volunteer (3 Years)
Hugh O'Brain Youth (HOBY) Leadership Award
Interact (last 2 years)</p>
<p>just remember that GPA = most important. hope that helps.</p>
<p>Thanks....any other opinions?</p>
<p>You'll get in. I honestly don't think it's too competitive. I got in for the fall...I'm going to UCSD though. My SATs were all in the 600s, but my rank was top 20%.</p>
<p>Well on USD's common data set, it says their weighted average is a 3.74, so since my gpa is basically their average, and I have a strong rank, and I have a good amount of community service, and a couple leadership positions.....what do you think I should attempt to raise my SAT score to, so that I'm pretty much in at USD?</p>
<p>I got a 500 (CR) and 600 (M)</p>
<p>i guess its safe to assume that USD is your 1st choice? I would say raise everything. My CR was 580, and my math was 630...</p>
<p>It isn't my number 1, but it is definitely one of my favorite schools.</p>
<p>So as of right now my list goes..</p>
<ol>
<li>University of Miami</li>
<li>UCSB/LMU/USD</li>
<li>Pepperdine</li>
<li>San Diego St.</li>
<li>ASU or U of A</li>
</ol>
<p>Thanks for the help.</p>
<p>If you can get an 1800 overall you should be in good shape. I got in with a 3.75 GPA and 1800 SAT for the fall, but I don't I'll be going there.</p>
